Cinema 4D Tutorial - MORE Procedural Alien Rocks (Octane)

[@extrathicc78]

the little 'forever' at the end as a little nod to Fantano made me laugh man, thank you for all your incredible work. These tutorials are game changers

[@NewPlastic]

Hahah wow so happy you caught that. That was for all the busy music nerds out there.

[@no_damage]

What I think we really want from you because you are one of the best with textures for octane when no one else is doing it well. Is and in depth with texturing covering why and how to use the different nodes. When you want to achieve a certain look this is the thought process behind what you would do and why. Like a full ass tutorial!

[@no_damage]

Like in this tutorial when you added a octane tag and used a subdivision level. I never even knew about that. I'm assuming it ups the subdivision visually but not in the viewpoint giving you a faster render time and a smoother suface.

[@NewPlastic]

I absolutely hear you. I've been thinking for a long time about making a All About Nodes tutorial, but it'll be a long and difficult one lol But yes, thank you for reminding me!

[@astrojungle]

Love your work! I’m learning so much. I will support you when I’m not broke AF! Thank you so much for the content you’re putting out here. Developing my skills so hopefully I won’t be broke any more.

[@NewPlastic]

So happy to hear you're learning! My advice is, don't worry about money now and just focus on getting better and developing your language, your skills and your relationships with people. Before you know it, the money will start showing up. Just be ready for it :)

[@DavidAlef-rg4zs]

Your instructions are a pleasure to watch

[@NewPlastic]

Hah appreciate you brother

[@willbachman1501]

What’s so crazy about these procedural materials is if you animate every single noise you can get some insanely crazy eye melting results.

[@NewPlastic]

Damn I bet! Love this idea

[@e-9344]

Man, keep going! Your channel is incredibly helpful! If only you knew how much you do! Thank you! 🖤

[@NewPlastic]

That's awesome to know, appreciate you!

[@11Briian]

Such a tutorials you have... THANKS for sharing this to the 3D comunity.. and I'll be glad to get the materials pack and contribute to your work. B)

[@NewPlastic]

Thank you for supporting Brian!

[@mila5403]

I’m learning so much from your tutorials, prob the best ones I’ve seen on 3D! Will you do something about Redshift too in the future??

[@NewPlastic]

Amazing to hear that! I haven't dealt with Redshift but once I do, I'll make tutorial using it for sure!

[@colorgasm]

UP! would love Redshift Tutorials too. Awesome work.

[@puyakhalili]

Love this material! Thanks

[@NewPlastic]

Hell yes!

Absolutely!

love the bgm list！please share it！please！！！❤️❤️

[@coontree14]

Gonna do this to base models from daz 😍

[@NewPlastic]

Sounds fun! Great idea

[@xodn08]

What a nice tutorial !

[@NewPlastic]

[@rubenahlers2681]

Just turned myself into a proud plastic puppy, love your content, will try to morph into a plastic panda pretty soon!

[@NewPlastic]

Yes! All my plastic friends are highly appreciated, thanks for supporting Ruben

[@loudecho]

crazy,, thanks always

[@NewPlastic]

You got it

[@tinywang2181]

wonderful！

[@NewPlastic]

[@FaddyVFX]

👍👍👍Beautiful effects and thoughtful coloring and grading. i would like to learn and try to do some great ideas, awesome

[@justdr7223]

hope you made tutorial for redshift too!

[@Sikalafo82]

crazy guy!

[@NewPlastic]

That's what my mom calls me

[@userinfo3119]

Very cool

[@brandonblair6529]

YOOOO

[@NewPlastic]

AYOOOOO

[@strawberryowl2426]

Hi, thanks for your tutorials, learned so much from you!! But, recently I started doing octane materials from your videos, and could not make it right for some reason it doesnt look like yours att all, I've tried not to improvise and copy exact same parameters, but still result looks very very different. Could it be from octane updates or something ? I will be very grateful for your answer, because I’ve already racked my brains trying to understand(

[@J3DMG]

If you make same tutorial in Redshift, it will be awesome! 🙏

[@NewPlastic]

I actually just bought Redshift, so redshift tutorials might be coming soon!

[@Hansoner]

love you so much！！

[@prettygrotesk254]

YESSSSS

[@jimbo2471]

Awesome work! Does anyone know if i can follow that one with a redshift material or will it be very different?

[@NewPlastic]

Redshift should work the same way, using noises and mixing them together and applying them on different channels for the results youre looking for.

[@jimbo2471]

@@NewPlastic I'll try it out in the coming days. Your materials are stunning 👌🏻

[@elmasganic]

Hey, i am new in the space:D can i use these materials with redshift ?

[@edrevvvv]

What kind of GTX do u have because my pc crashed 20 times trying this xD

[@DrNapalm]

hi man. bump doesn't work and I don't know why. how can I fix that?

[@NewPlastic]

My guess is that it has to do with the bump contrast & details, too many details and too much contrast get weird results. Find the sweet spot. Also, the right lighting can make or break how the bump looks.

[@katherinelee7119]

I downloaded the pack but it shows missing the octane plugin.I downloaded in octane x somehow does not appear in my c4d. Do u know What can I do with that ?

[@NewPlastic]

Hey sorry for the late reply. Does it still not work? My friend just installed Octane X and there's a workaround that needs to make it work, the operation system is blocking Octane from working due to security issues. There's a video on KZbin that shows how to fix it

[@adarshnegi4919]

Hey man I bought the rock pack from your gumroad, but when i apply texture on it as UV mess projection. The texture stretches, and if i make it cubic, the texture looks very bad. How do I solve this? Great tutorial and files tho :)

[@NewPlastic]

If the texture is set to UV Mesh and it stretches then your UVs might be not unwrapped? If you switch it to Cubic, you probably need to change the scale, try to scale it down or scale it up (keeping it uniform) and that should work!

[@adarshnegi4919]

@@NewPlastic Hello, thanks for your response! I tried to use cubic projection, but it's still messed up I don't understand the UV unwrapping part you mentioned :(

[@adarshnegi4919]

Ahh, UV unwrapping, just saw a tutorial, i'll give it a try and let u know. Thanks a lot :)

[@adarshnegi4919]

doesn't work man :( I think its the model The texture is still messed up:( Could u help me please

[@adarshnegi4919]

@@NewPlastic is this file available on your patreon to purchase? :) I just need the model :( Since the one from gumroad isnt working for the texture

[@offthehouse]

Any way to utilize this in blender?

[@NewPlastic]

I'm sure there is, the concepts stay the same, using noises in the displacement channel and mixing them around to get different effects

[@DeanRipper]

any idea why nothing happens when i plug my noise into transmission?

[@NewPlastic]

Hmmm could be because the albedo is not black wherever the transmission is on? Also make sure you're on Path Tracing kernel that might help. Also the white in the noise that's plugged into the transmission has to have obvious white parts to really show the transmission

[@DeanRipper]

@@NewPlastic i followed you pretty closely; black multing the color in albedo, PT (tried raised spec samples), noise going into transmission is pretty BW. might have to update my plugin version and go from there

[@NewPlastic]

@@DeanRipper Maybe your metallic is turned on?

[@DeanRipper]

@@NewPlastic nope :( my mat looks so close, stone in the black area of the transmission map, and just black w/ some spec in the white area of the transmission map

[@DeanRipper]

@@NewPlastic wait....i checked metallic back on....and turned the float to 0 and now it works....
